Any widget like JTextPane [message #466986]

Hi, all.

I wonder if SWT or JFace includes a widget like JEditorPane or JTextPane in
Swing. Actually I

want texts with various fonts to be displayed in a text editor. However, as
I know, the

StyledText widget in the custom package does not support this - texts can
only have various font

styles and colors using the StyleRange class. Or to be compromised, is there
any widget that

allows me to have texts with different font sizes shown in a single text
editor?

Thanks.

You will have to wait for the GEF WYSIWYG text editor.
Check the GEF project.

I'm fairly certain they are working on this for StyledText for 3.2. You might want to try the latest milestone.

Thanks for your advice. I'll try both these. But I'm afraid the SWT
milestone version is not stable enough.

Awesome! It completely meet my demands. And it has supported image embeded
in a StyledText since M3, which is also what I want. The SWT team really did
a good job. Thanks for your advice.
